761: Do you think I’m stupid?
"Go talk to him first and let him decide whether he dares to do it or not."
She believes that in the face of huge benefits, people are willing to take risks.
Shao Xia was a little conflicted. She was timid and didn't dare to take risks on such a huge business. She was also a little unsure of Brother Lei's attitude.
Although she was not a stranger to Brother Lei, he knew who she was and could find her home, so he was not afraid that she would run away.
But would Brother Lei give two hundred and fifty yuan to someone before he even sees the goods in person?
Those who work in the black market spend a lot of time fighting with others for a few cents.
Two hundred and fifty yuan, can you let it go easily?
Who knows, Brother Lei might scold her and say that she is trying to cheat him out of his money.
Thinking of this, Shao Xia became even more timid.
Seeing Shao Xia struggling, Yu Xiaoye guessed what she was thinking and advised:
"Shao Xia, don't worry about Brother Lei for now. If he thinks it's suitable, then he can take the money. If not, then forget it. We're not forcing him, right?
Business is all about integrity. If he can trust me this time, I'll trust him in the future too. We can work together for mutual benefit and make money together. Brother Lei definitely understands this principle better than I do. So just deliver the message.
Don't worry about me, think about it. If this deal goes through, it will be 250 yuan. If you get 20% of that much money, how much is 20% of 250 yuan? Do the math yourself."
"Fifty dollars?"
"Yes, fifty yuan. With this fifty yuan, is it enough for you and your sister to go back to the city for the New Year's round trip?"
“Enough, enough!”
"That's it."
Yu Xiaoye gave Shao Xia some advice and successfully opened her mind:
"Okay, I understand. I'll go talk to Brother Lei about this for you."
The two went out together.
Shao Xia found Brother Lei.
When Brother Lei saw Shao Xia coming to find him, he immediately put aside other things and walked in front of Shao Xia:
"How's it going? Any news about your friend?"
Shao Xia relied on the courage given by Yu Xiaoye and said calmly:
"My friend said she still has 500 kilograms of goods—"
"Five hundred pounds?!"
"Well, five hundred kilograms of goods have been unloaded at a place, just like the last shipment. If you want it, pay first. After paying, she will tell you the address of the fish and you can bring someone to pick it up."
"——" Brother Lei, who was originally beaming with joy, was a little surprised. He had never expected the other party to do this.
Pay first, then get the goods?
Shao Xia anticipated Lei Ge's reaction and told him as Yu Xiaoye said:
"Brother Lei, we've already done business once, so we should have some trust in each other. You've seen the quality of the fish I sold you, and I sold it at such a low price because I was sincere in doing business with you and didn't want to waste time on talking.
The reason for taking the money first and then the goods is for safety reasons, to prevent the news from leaking out and being caught red-handed.
Don't forget that you can get such good goods at such a low price. Others will definitely be jealous when they know it, so you must be on guard against others. Therefore, it is safer to trade money and goods separately.
What do you think? If it’s suitable, give me the money first.
If you think it's not suitable, even if the deal doesn't work out, we can still work together next time if there's an opportunity."
After Shao Xia finished speaking, she was still a little nervous, fearing that Brother Lei would suddenly lose his temper.
Brother Lei really lost his temper, and cursed with a red face:
"Why would I pay you if you haven't even seen the goods? Do you think I'm stupid?"
Shao Xia suddenly deflated, shrank her neck and said:
"Brother Lei, don't be angry, let's do it next time, next time——"
After saying that, Shao Xia turned and left.
Not long after walking out, Brother Lei shouted again:
"Come back, who told you to leave?"
Shao Xia had no choice but to stop.
Lei Ge came over:
"Who told you to leave? Why are you running away before you even finish your words?"
Shao Xia felt a little aggrieved, but did not dare to refute.
Seeing the girl's shrinking expression, Brother Lei stopped showing off and asked seriously:
"Are you sure today's batch is the same as yesterday's?"
Shao Xia nodded vigorously:
"Yeah, same thing!"
Although she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she believed that Yu Xiaoye would not cheat her.
Brother Lei sighed helplessly:
Nowadays, if you have a source of goods, you are the boss, the boss, and the ancestor!
Not to mention it weighs a full 500 kilograms!
That is the ancestor of our ancestors!
Although Brother Lei didn't quite understand how the friend Shao Xia mentioned got this batch of top-quality goods, many things on the black market had unclear origins and no one seriously investigated them. As long as they could be sold, it was fine.
And that fish yesterday was really hot.
Before he even started to prepare to sell the fish, a group of people took a fancy to them. One hundred kilograms of fish were sold out quickly, and the price was not low, 80 cents per kilogram, and he made 30 cents off the sale.
Brother Lei deliberately left two pieces of fish meat and stewed them in the pot himself. The fish meat was particularly tender and firm, and tasted much better than ordinary fish, and had fewer bones.
Goods like this would only cost 80 cents on the black market!
It has to be sold for at least one dollar per pound!
Brother Lei's eyes lit up, so he ran to Shao Xia early in the morning and asked her if she had any more such stuff.
When Shao Xia said there were still 500 kilograms, Brother Lei suddenly felt that he was going to get rich.
But when I heard that I had to pay money first, I felt that it was a scam and it was not scientific.
How can you take the money first and then tell me where the goods are? What if the other party runs away with the money?
Five hundred kilograms is two hundred and fifty yuan, which is half of Brother Lei's fortune.
Who has the courage to risk half of their wealth at once?
However, if the 500 kilograms were real, and he sold them for one dollar, the net profit would be
Two hundred and fifty dollars!
I made back half of my fortune with interest!
Although Brother Lei has been a trader for several years, he has never encountered such a big business and has never made so much money at one time.
I'm really jealous and conflicted.
After being in a dilemma for a long time, Brother Lei said to Shao Xia fiercely:
"Shao, I know your name, who your mother is, and where you live. The monk may run away, but the temple cannot. If I pay the money and can't see the goods, or the goods are not what I ordered, or are short of weight, I will settle the account with you. If I can't find you, I will go find your mother, and your sister."
Shao Xia was very nervous after hearing what she heard, and felt as if she had harmed her entire family. However, at this point, she could only choose to believe Yu Xiaoye and take a gamble on him.
"Okay, Brother Lei, I guarantee with my whole family that nothing will go wrong!"
Finally, Brother Lei counted out two hundred and fifty yuan and gave it to Shao Xia as if he was cutting meat.
Shao Xia looked at the thick stack of twenty-five Great Unity notes, her heart pounding, much more excited than the last time she saw fifty yuan.
Brother Lei saw her greed for money and reminded her when she paid:
"Don't forget, I can find your home."
Shao Xia held on to the money tightly:
"Well, I guarantee you, this money will never go away!"
